Changing step

Changing Step looks at a cross-section of men and women who left the forces several years ago to construct for themselves new identities as civilians. It asks why some people seem eminently successful in making this transition whilst others never manage it, remaining for ever 'ex-Servicemen'. It looks at the issue of major life change in general and identifies the processes at work in the adaptation of individuals to altered circumstances. Most importantly, Changing Step draws on the personal experiences of a wide variety of military leavers, to learn directly from them the pitfalls and the satisfactions of beginning again as a civilian.
